"Crazy, don't go crazy today. Come sing with me. I've lined up a few hot girls—let me introduce you. At this rate, you'll never escape your virgin life even after high school!"
Ma Ka put on a savior-like expression, making Li Feng shake his head helplessly. He always used this to taunt him—was being a virgin some kind of national disaster?
"No thanks, I can't skip my workout."
Once a habit was formed, Li Feng would feel awful all over if he missed a single day of training.
This time, Ma Ka said to Li Feng seriously, "We're bros, and this is my last piece of advice. That girl is really not right for you. Feelings are a double-edged sword, and you'll only sink deeper. You have to be careful."
Li Feng gave his shoulder a firm pat. He knew Ma Ka meant well, but he wasn't as hung up as Ma Ka thought. He didn't deny Tang Ling's appeal, but he had his own life goals.
Watching Li Feng walk away, Ma Ka shook his head helplessly. ...Oh god, how hard did he hit? His shoulder was already swollen. Ma Ka wanted to cry but had no tears, so he could only seek some comfort in a girl's arms.
Not long after leaving school, a shiny Mercedes KLR5 pulled up beside Li Feng. The window rolled down slowly, revealing Tang Ling's angelic smile. "Li Feng, right?"
Even with the composure Li Feng had trained himself to have, he still felt a bit nervous facing this situation. Such a reaction naturally didn't escape Tang Ling's eyes, and she felt slightly disappointed inside.
"Yes, Tang Ling, right? Is there something up?" This nervousness didn't last long—it was more excitement than nervousness.
"Hehe, get in and talk."
The driver quickly got out and opened the door. Li Feng had nothing to worry about, so he unhesitatingly climbed into the car. A soundproof barrier rose, leaving only the two of them in the spacious back seat. This was the first time Li Feng had been so close to a girl, and a faint fragrance filled his olfactory senses.
The two stared at each other without blinking. In fact, the moment Li Feng entered, Tang Ling felt a tremor in her soul—he gave her a great deal of pressure, though she didn't show it. This guy looked like an ordinary person, so why did she feel this way?
Tang Ling wasn't sure if it was just an illusion.
Finally, it was Tang Ling who couldn't help herself. She forced an elegant smile and said, "Classmate Li Feng, next Sunday is my birthday. I'm planning a small party. I wonder if you'd be willing to come?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Ling felt it was a bit too... humbling. There was really no need for her to act like that.
The sudden invitation surprised Li Feng a bit, but not in the ecstatic way he had imagined. "It's truly an honor to receive your invitation. I'll definitely be there on time."
Even after getting out of the car, Li Feng still felt like it was all a dream. Only when he looked at the golden invitation in his hand did he realize it was real—and that diamond on it was real too. ...GAD's style was truly extraordinary.
Once his brain returned to normal operation, Li Feng suddenly realized a bunch of problems... How did Tang Ling know him? Why did she invite him? At that kind of top-tier party, what would he do, and what should he wear?
Questions came crashing down on him. Oh god, sometimes good luck could be a kind of trouble. Li Feng decided to use exercise to forget his worries for a while.
He opened the door, but Ma Ka wasn't there—that pervert never came back before midnight. He directly adjusted the gravity device to four times normal, closed the door, and walked in shirtless. Only four times the gravity could give him any sensation, but today his mental state was way too excited—he absolutely needed a brutal workout to calm down!
And just as Li Feng was about to pick up the dumbbell, a lightning bolt flashed through his mind, and he suddenly fainted, a faint light emerging from his body surface.
Self-check: Recovery status slow, initiating sensory system…
Owner assessment: Low level, good condition, eligible for planning.
Connecting… owner's will, to become a powerful mobile suit, receiving… configuration… entering simulated combat state… countdown three seconds, three… two… one, initiate!
But at this moment, Li Feng was not unconscious; instead, he appeared in a vast space. He pinched himself hard, but felt no pain… damn, haunted?
Well, since he'd already been hit by a meteor, getting haunted by a ghost was no big deal.
Observing the blend of real and unreal, Li Feng felt it was probably some kind of all-weather virtual space, maybe even like a space battle game.
"Anyone there? If so, make a sound?"
……
Squeak…
The sudden sound from beside him startled Li Feng. Turning around, he saw a round metal ball with a pair of wings… or rather, a machine toy.
"Man, was that you squeaking just now?" This robot sure is obedient.
"Great master, hello, I am the eighth generation of Maya KFBT toys, serial number 9638. You can call me Xiao Jin."
The robot said with a straight face.
Li Feng's mind raced, thinking whether he was dreaming or if everything was an illusion. He slowly reached out toward Xiao Jin but found his hand grabbing nothing.
"Where is this, why am I here, what is Maya, what is KFBT, and what are you?" In shock, Li Feng blurted out a string of questions, but his intuition told him this must be related to the meteor and the unusual changes in his body these past few days.
"Master, Maya is a civilization originating from Earth. It is the most powerful force in the cosmic plane. I am a product of Maya civilization, KFBT is my model number, meaning Full-Intelligent Battle Control Drill Education Toy, and Xiao Jin is your toy."
Although his grades were terrible, Li Feng never doubted his own intelligence. The Earth was fine, but there was definitely no Maya civilization on it. Apparently there had been a Maya civilization a long, long time ago, but it definitely wasn't something capable of creating this kind of thing... And whose toy would be called 'Full Intelligent Combat Control Acting Education'... What does one thing have to do with another!
But Li Feng more or less understood this much: this thingy really came from another civilization. Earth might just be a temporary translation for its language system. Anyway, that wasn't the main point—the main point was why it had brought him here!
"Ahem, Little Gold, am I in your space right now? Can you let me go back?"
God, he didn't want to be kidnapped by aliens. To die under the peonies, at least I'd be a romantic ghost.
"Sorry, master. The system has detected your request and has initiated the training system. Before completing the training, you must remain in this space. The time ratio between here and reality is ten to one."
Xiaojin still answered in a stiff tone.
Li Feng was about to faint. How could there be such a thing? When had he ever requested this? Besides, if he was the master, didn't he have the right to change it?
"Hey, Xiaojin, since I'm the master, can we change this and train later instead?"
Crackle...
"Sorry, master. Due to severe damage sustained while traversing the parallel space, your request cannot be executed. Please choose to wait or proceed with training."
